When we signed Blackman he was playing as a striker and one of the top goalscorers in the league. We signed him and because Martin was 'irreplaceable' in the starting 11 he was either out wide or dropped to the bench. He started the season again out wide when Pearson joined and we all know how that went (Vydra alone up top). Sent out on loan to Tel-Aviv after not really consolidating a place - But was he given a chance? Had a decent season out there and was coached by Cryuff - Played in Europa League i think? Any player who is a Derby player needs support, With a full pre season with the team mates and new coaching staff behind him maybe we will see glimpses of what he showed at Reading. Only time will tell, But i trust Franks decisions nether the less... Yeah, the whole Blackman debacle typifies what we were about at that time. Sign a striker, stick him out wide. It never gave us a chance, it never gave Blackman a chance... We did exactly the same with Vydra, who only came into his own via a formation change - arguably at detriment to our performances & team. It depends on how Lampard wants to play, but based on what he's mentioned in the media where he's given an insight to his own career and ideology - I think we will have 3 CMs back in the system.

At least 3 central midfielders Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carnero Posted July 7, 2018 Share Posted July 7, 2018 Sheff Utd have targeted Scott Hogan -still only 26 and likely to be available for under £5m. Would be a decent replacement if we sell Vydra. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ambitious Posted July 7, 2018 Share Posted July 7, 2018 I just want to point out that after Maguire won POTY at Sheffield United about 15 times in a row, I said we should sign him. Can someone forward my information on to Mel. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if we're allowed to sign foreign johnnies anymore though, what with brexit and our basic hatred of foreign people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially reading at how Lampard wants his team to play, we just simply don't have the players for it. Attack looking very weak as well. We probably need at least 5 players. Not that long to go. If Leeds pull out of the Vydra deal I don't know what we're going to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because when that starts to happen, panic stations kick in. First game on Saturday and the window shutting a month tomorrow. Ouch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
